Visa~V @leonardodicaprio #Regram #RG @johanernst: Polar bears are a big part of Svalbard. There are more polar bears than people. But the Arctic is changing and polar bears are having a tougher life. Their dependence on sea ice makes them highly vulnerable to a changing climate. Polar bears rely heavily on the sea ice environment for traveling, hunting, mating, resting, and in some areas, maternal dens. In particular, they depend heavily on sea ice-dependent prey, such as ringed and bearded seals. Additionally, their long generation time and low reproductive rate may limit their ability to adapt to changes in the environment. #johanernst #explorerjen #adventureactivist #svalbard #northpole #climatechange #arctic #polarbear Photo: @svalbardianer
